I don't know the real answers to these issues since all I saw on
SATURDAY was an end of day demostration of the product (read again
presentation was on SATURDAY so US markets are NOT OPEN).
In any case, what I wanted to point out is that you are playing with
missinformation as much as Omega is, as you are speculating, making
false statement about the person I asked these questions to, and many
other things.
Your oppinion counts as much as my friends (and to me it count's much
less, since we know you can be 'somewhat biased' toward omega...)
